Everyone wants tender, juicy meatballs. The best way to achieve this is to use a panade. A panade is a paste of bread or bread crumbs (sometimes cookies, crackers, and cake) soaked in liquid.

It lends tenderness and moisture to ground meat mixtures like meatloaf and meatballs. Low carb meatballs do not use bread or bread crumbs to make a panade.
